• How can Yoga restore safety and connection and help practitioners live more balanced life? 
• How can Yoga facilitate healing trauma?
• What are the ways to change the chemistry in the body?
• Why is the use of restorative Yoga and fascial release so important? 
• And finally: how can I use all this knowledge in life and in Yoga classes as a teacher?
